Questions & Answers – September 14, 2012

Karmal Mohammed: Can you please tell me about my work career for the future. I am very depressed. Thank you. Namaste.Swami Ramswarup: Sorry, there is no process to tell about future in Vedas. Whatever pandit states based on teva or astrology is not accepted by learned, being against the Vedas. However, Vedas state that based on previous lives’ deeds, all human beings face the result thereof, in the shape of happiness and sorrows. To destroy the effect of previous lives’ bad deeds. Vedas state to do worship of God. So, all worries and depression will be destroyed if regular worship of God (khuda) is performed with prayer.

Mohit: A question asked by some1 from other religion:-I have asked 100 of Arya Samaji about this question that what they will prefer for their widow sister NIYOG or Remarriage They say Remarriage This is clearly show that you people do not follow your book SATYARTH PRAKASH and your guru SWAMI DAYANAND? What should I answer him.Swami Ramswarup: No doubt, in the matter which you’ve raised, Niyog is to be adopted but in my view niyog could’ve only been applicable uptil Mahabharat time, when Vedic knowledge and strictly brahamcharya path was to be followed based on Vedic knowledge, under the guidance of mantra drishta Rishi-munis. Nowadays, when Vedic knowledge is mostly not in action (except for listening) then lack of command on five senses/maintaining brahamcharya etc., will exist. Ultimately, if niyog will be adopted, it will be adopted actually in the sense of sexual activities only.

So, naturally to avoid corruption, sensuality and bad desires, niyog should not be adopted until Vedic knowledge is in practice. If niyog at this stage, will be applied then male member will thereafter make spending fun of the widow and her relatives and parents. The society does not accept it, due to lack of Vedic knowledge, then who’ll like to make himself target of their spending fun by using Niyog.

Now, you see there was a Rishi named Surya whom Kunti requested for a child. Kunti was still unmarried at that time. Surya Rishi, accepted the request and Kunti got the son – Karnna. This action was praised by the then society but you see, nowadays, it is criticized by several persons. Why criticism? Because criticizers lack the knowledge of Vedas. Secondly, five pandavas were born by means of Niyog and were highly appreciated by the then society but now the matter is being criticized at several stages only due to lack of Vedas’ knowledge. In this connection, Rigveda mantra 10/18/8 clearly states that if widow is young and cannot maintain brahamcharya for whole of life , she can remarry.

MCG: Pranam Guruji, I want to follow your advise to kill my previous and present life sins. Is that motivation enough to worship God and learn Ashtang Yoga and reach you? Or is it temporary wish? How can I know that I am preaching GOD from my heart? Thanks.Swami Ramswarup: My blessings to you. Your views are highly appreciated and you are always welcome here, anytime. You may contact my indicated disciple to come here. Rest of query will be discussed in person.
